For the first time in the history of this traditional annual event, a non-human was cele- brated: the computer was declared ‘Machine of the Year 1982’. The cover dis- played a table with a personal computer on it, and a man sitting passively next to it and looking rather puzzled. On the 2006 Time’s election cover once again a computer was shown, now basically a screen reflecting the ‘Person of the Year’: ‘YOU. Yes, you. You control the Information Age. Welcome to your world.’ Within 24 years the computer seemed to have changed from an exciting, mys- terious machine with unknown capabilities into a transparent mirror, reflecting you, your desires and your activities. Apparently, digital machines embody no un- solved puzzles any more. At the beginning of the 21st century, they are so widely distributed and used that we take them for granted – though we still call them ‘new media’. Computers, e-mail, the Internet, mobile phones, digital photo al- bums, and computer games have become common artefacts in our daily lives. Part of the initial spell has worn off, yet new spells have been cast as well, and some of the old spells still haunt the discourse about the so-called new media. Three decades of societal and cultural alignment of digital machinery yielded a host of innovations, trials, failures, and problems, accompanied by hype-hopping popular and academic discourse. Meanwhile, new media studies crystallized in- ternationally into an established academic discipline, especially when the first academic bachelor and master programs were institutionalized ten years ago, in- cluding the Utrecht program, New Media and Digital Culture.1 A decade of un- folding the field implores us to reflect on where we stand now. Which new ques- tions emerge when new media are taken for granted, and which puzzles are still unsolved? Is contemporary digital culture indeed all about ‘you’, or do we still not really fathom the digital machinery and how it constitutes us as ‘you’? The con- tributors to the present book, all teaching and researching new media and digital 7 culture, and all involved in the Utrecht Media Research group, assembled their ‘digital material’ into an anthology to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Utrecht program. Together, the contributions provide a showcase of current state-of-the–art research in the field, from what we as editors have called a ‘digi- tal-materialist’ perspective. Immaterial, im/material, in-material Popular discourse in the 1990s framed new media chiefly as possessing new and amazing qualities. They were believed to fundamentally transform the way we think, live, love, work, learn, and play. Hypertext, virtual reality, and cyberspace were the predominant buzzwords. They announced a new frontier of civilization, whether from an optimistic utopian perspective – pointing to the emergence of virtual communities, new democracy, and a new economy – or from a more pes- simistic and dystopian angle – with warnings against the digital divide, informa- tion glut, and ubiquitous surveillance. Yet, both outlooks were rooted in the same idea: that new media marked a shift from the material to the immaterial, a gener- al transformation of atoms into bits (Negroponte 1995) and of matter into mind (Barlow 1996). These lines of reasoning were characterized by what we may call digital mysticism, a special brand of technological determinism in which digitality and software are considered to be ontologically immaterial determinants of new media. New media and their effects were thus framed as being ‘hyper’, ‘virtual’, and ‘cyber’–that is, outside of the known materiality, existing independently of the usual material constraints and determinants, such as material bodies, politics, and the economy. Though this kind of discourse was criticized right from the start as a specific ideology (Barbrook and Cameron 1995), it proved to be persis- tent, and traces of it can still be discerned in the current academic discourse. When new media appeared on the radar of media and

    ZfWT Vol. 9 No. 3 (2017) 269-288 FEMINIST READING OF GOTHIC SUBCULTURE: EMPOWERMENT, LIBERATION, REAPPROPRIATION Mikhail PUSHKIN∗ Abstract: Shifting in and out of public eye ever since its original appearance in the 1980ies, Gothic subculture, music and aesthetics in their impressive variety have become a prominent established element in global media, art and culture. However, understanding of their relation to female gender and expression of femininity remains ambiguous, strongly influenced by stereotypes. Current research critically analyses various distinct types of Gothic subculture from feminist angle, and positively identifies its environment as female-friendly and empowering despite and even with the help of its strongly sexualized aesthetics. Although visually geared towards the male gaze, Gothic subcultural environment enables women to harness, rather than repress the power of attraction generated by such aesthetics. Key words: Subculture, Feminism, Gothic. INTRODUCTION Without a doubt, Gothic subculture is a much-tattered subject, being at the centre of both popular mass media with its gossip, consumerism and commercialization, as well as academia with diverse papers debasing, pigeonholing and even defending the subculture. Furthermore, even within the defined, feminist, angle, a thorough analysis of Gothic subculture would require a volume of doctoral dissertation to give the topic justice. This leaves one in a position of either summarizing and reiterating earlier research (a useful endeavour, however, bringing no fresh insight), or striving for a kind of fresh look made possible by the ever-changing eclectic ambivalent nature of the subculture. Current research takes the middle ground approach: touching upon earlier research only where relevant, providing a very general, yet necessary outlook on the contemporary Gothic subculture in its diversity, so as to elucidate its more relevant elements whilst focusing on the ways in which it empowers women.

Suomalaiset musiikkilehdet osana rockmuusikko Ville Valon tähteyden rakentumista 1997–2010 Pro gradu -tutkielma, 114 s., 6 liites. (liite vain painetussa versiossa) Tiedotusoppi Maaliskuu 2013 Suomessa on ainoastaan kourallinen todellisia rocktähtiä. HIM-yhtyeen keulakuva Ville Valo on yksi heistä. Pro gradu -tutkielmani tarkoituksena on selvittää, miten suomalaiset musiikkilehdet ovat osallistuneet rocktähti Ville Valon tähtikuvan rakentumiseen lehtijuttujensa välityksellä. Valon tähtikuvan rakentumista tarkastelen suhteessa alan tutkimukseen ja kirjallisuuteen. Selvitän tutkielmani avulla myös hieman Valon suhdetta musiikkilehtien toimittajiin ja pohdin samalla, mitä Valo-tapaus kertoo suomalaisesta musiikkijournalismista. Päädyin tarkastelemaan Valon tähtikuvan rakentumista juuri musiikkilehdissä muun muassa, koska on loogista tutkia muusikon tähtikuvan muodostumista juuri musiikkilehdissä. Mukana tutkimuksessani on yhteensä viisi suomalaista musiikkilehteä: Inferno, Rumba, Rytmi, Soundi ja Sue. Tutkielmani teoriaosuus koostuu niin tähteyttä kuin musiikkijournalismia käsittelevästä kirjallisuudesta, sillä tutkimusaiheeni kannalta juuri tähteys ja musiikkijournalismi ovat ydinroolissa. Tutkimusmenetelminä tutkielmassani käytän määrällistä analyysia ja diskurssianalyysia.

  • The New Digital Economy and Development
    UNCTAD UNITED NATIONS CONFERENCE ON TRADE AND DEVELOPMENT THE «NEW» DIGITAL ECONOMY AND DEVELOPMENT UNCTAD Technical Notes on ICT for Development N˚8 UNITED NATIONS UNCTAD, DIVISION ON TECHNOLOGY AND LOGISTICS SCIENCE , TECHNOLOGY AND ICT BRANCH ICT POLICY SECTION TECHNICAL NOTE NO8 UNEDITED TN/UNCTAD/ICT4D/08 OCTOBER 2017 The ‘New’ Digital Economy and Development 1 Abstract : This technical note frames the ‘New’ Digital Economy (NDE) as including, most prominently: 1) advanced manufacturing, robotics and factory automation, 2) new sources of data from mobile and ubiquitous Internet connectivity, 3) cloud computing, 4) big data analytics, and 5) artificial intelligence. The main driver of the NDE is the continued exponential improvement in the cost-performance of information and communications technology (ICT), mainly microelectronics, following Moore’s Law. This is not new. The digitization of design, advanced manufacturing, robotics, communications, and distributed computer networking (e.g. the Internet) have been altering innovation processes, the content of tasks, and the possibilities for the relocation of work for decades. However, three features of the NDE are relatively novel. First, new sources of data, from smart phones to factory sensors, are sending vast quantities of data into the “cloud,” where they can be analysed to generate new insights, products, and services. Second, new business models based on technology and product platforms — platform innovation, platform ownership, and platform complimenting — are significantly altering the organization of industries and the terms of competition in a range of leading-edge industries and product categories. Third, the performance of ICT hardware and software has advanced to the point where artificial intelligence and machine learning applications are proliferating.

  • The Fourth Industrial Revolution: How the EU Can Lead It

This is because machines and artificial intelligence play a significant role in enhancing productivity and wealth creation, which directly changes and challenges the role of human beings. The fourth industrial revolution will also intensify globalisation. Therefore, technology will become much more significant, because regions and societies that cope positively with the technological impact of the fourth industrial revolution will have a better economic and social future. This article argues that the EU can play an important role in developing an environment appropriate for the fourth industrial revolution, an environment that is vibrant and open to new technologies. Member states would profit from an EU-wide coordinated framework for this area. The EU has to establish new common policies for the market-oriented diffusion and widespread use of new technologies. Keywords Fourth industrial revolution, Technology policy, Industrial policy, Leadership Introduction Historically there have been four industrial revolutions (see Schwab 2016). The first began in the early nineteenth century, when the power of steam and water dramatically increased the productivity of human (physical) labour. The second revolution started almost a hundred years later with electricity as its key driver. Mass industrial production Corresponding author: M.

The transformational experiences described in the book offer a multitude of ways in which learning is organized and applied to advance a nation’s productive structures and build competitive advantage in the global economy.’ Michael H Best, Professor Emeritus, Author of How Growth Really Happens: The Making of Economic Miracles through Production, Governance and Skills, Winner of the 2018 Schumpeter Prize ‘The analysis of development and catching-up has finally shifted away from sur- real problems of ‘optimal’ market-driven allocation of resources, toward the processes of learning and capability accumulation. This is an important contribution in this perspec- tive: And yet another nail into the coffinofthe“Washington Consensus”.’ Giovanni Dosi, Professor of Economics, Scuola Superiore Sant’ Anna, Pisa, Italy ‘Industrialisation has always been fundamental to sustained economic growth. It separates the world into high and low-income economies. To create inclusive pros- perity, we urgently need to understand How Nations Learn. State-supported innovation is not only cardinal for catch-up, but also to abate climate breakdown (through crowding in new businesses, nurturing experimentation, and ensuring public benefits).

  • The Song Remains … the Same? Three Case Studies of Issues of Digital Preservation in Second Life Performance Practices
    The Song Remains … The Same? Three Case Studies of Issues of Digital Preservation in Second Life Performance Practices Dennis Moser I. Conceptual Differences Across Disciplines: Needs & Approaches The practice of documentation of performances such as music, theater, and dance and performance art is an integral part of the cultural record. As such, it is subject to change and evolution over time, as well as the vagaries of natural catastrophe, social disorder, or any of the myriad disrupters of human history. The application of the practice of documentation varies according to the discipline utilizing it; indeed, even its efficacy varies from culture to culture and from discipline to discipline. Couple this with our movement deeper and deeper into the use of digital technology for the manifestation of culture and we must grapple with new solutions for capturing and conveying the essentials of these acts of expression. The emergence of performance and installation art in the 20th century gave rise to a field of critical theory somewhat at odds with other approaches of documentation, couched as it was in the visual arts. While aspects of theater and dance have influenced this critical theory, the performance practice considerations of music have not played as much a role in defining it. Indeed, considerable discussion has been generated, over understanding just what comprises “documentation”, whether photography is ‘documentary’ or ‘theatrical’, or if it is a ‘conceptual medium for documentation’ (Taylor, 2009). This reflects a concern for the “visual” aspect of “performance” art as opposed to the temporal aspects so inherent in both music and dance.
